Critics Review
“This delightful picture book captures the humor and beauty of one special duckling family. McClosky’s illustrations are brilliant and filled with humor. The details of the ducklings, along with the popular sights of Boston, come across wonderfully. The image of the entire family proudly walking in line is a classic.” - The Barnes & Noble Review. “The quaint story of the mallard family’s search for the perfect place to hatch ducklings. For more than fifty years kids have been entertained by this warm and wonderful story.” - Children’s Literature
